Regionalism was an American art movement that emerged in the Midwest in the early 1930s and continued into the early 1940s.

When was regionalism started?

Regionalism is one of the three constituents of the international commercial system (along with multilateralism and unilateralism). The first coherent regional initiatives began in the 1950s and 1960s, but they accomplished little, except in Western Europe with the establishment of the European Community.

Who started regionalism?

American Regionalism is best known through its "Regionalist Triumvirate" consisting of the three most highly respected artists of America's Great Depression era: Grant Wood, Thomas Hart Benton, and John Steuart Curry. All three studied art in Paris, but devoted their lives to creating a truly American form of art.
